A Journey That Changed The World.

Chapter 247 Who Are You

?

Archer and Hemera entered Mehmet's carriage and saw an older woman, and two teenage boys that looked identical sitting there playing a game.

The three turned to their news guests and the woman spoke. ''Love who are these two?''

Mehmet quickly introduced them. ''This is Archer and his Fiance Hemera. They are adventurers traveling to Larissa City.''

The woman nodded her head, but one of the two boys spoke. ''Why are traveling to Larissa?''

Archer looked over to the boy as he answered. ''To collect a princess.''

When the boy heard his answer he got a confused look on his face before Mehmet laughed.

He started to introduce his family. ''This is my wife Zeynep and my two sons, Ahmet and Mustafa. They are twins.''

The two of them nodded their heads at the three as they took a seat, and that's when the carriage started moving.

Mehmets wife stopped playing the game with the twins and turned to him with narrowed eyes before speaking. ''What do you mean collecting a princess? You weren't lying it was the truth.''

When Hemera heard the woman she turned to Archer with a smile and spoke. ''So you're choosing her?''

Archer nodded his head as he remembered the two little girls from his dream before answering Zeynep. ''I'm meeting with a princess of the Lunaris Empire.''

When the twins heard his words, Mustafa jumped up and spoke. ''Why are you talking so casually about princesses? Your acting like your friends with some.''

He chuckled as Hemera smiled before explaining, "Well, he can speak like that because he will be marrying three princesses so far."

The family looked at the pair with weird looks; Mehmet didn't believe them but started speaking about the Nagendea Kingdom.

After an hour of conversation, he learned a lot about the kingdom. Mehmet informed him that the Nagendea Kingdom was the only southern kingdom not planning to declare war on the Avaloanins.

The twins inadvertently revealed that the Kingdom is also one of the two routes into the Empire.

One of them is The Sunfire Range Road guarded by Sentinels Reach, and the other is a large bridge to the north that crosses the Sahmur River but is guarded by a large Avalonian fortress.

As they continued talking for an hour, Mehmet's wife Zeynep warmed up to the two, and the couple gave him a lot of useful information about the Avalon Empire and the surrounding kingdoms.

Suddenly as they were talking Archer heard Nefertiti's voice in his head coming from a bracelet he was wearing.

"Husband, I'm awake and ready to head to the academy. Classes start just after midday, so we have time."

After she spoke he turned to Hemera and said, "We need to go. Nefi is heading to the academy. You can join me if you like."

Hemera nodded with a smile. Archer turned to Mehmet and his family, informing them that they needed to leave to the disappointment of the family who was enjoying their company.

After bidding their farewells, Archer and Hemera stepped out of the carriage, he grabbed a hold of her and cast Blink to get away from the road.

They appeared far in the distance, before him lay a breathtaking sight that seemed to belong to another world. 

A vast expanse of rolling hills stretched out, painted in hues of emerald and gold, dotted with wildflowers that swayed gently in the soft morning breeze. 

Archer opened a portal to the domain and walked through it as they entered the treehouse, he saw Nefertiti sitting there, staring into nothing.

He walked up to her and playfully nibbled her ear, making her yelp and laugh.

Her cheeks turned red, but she turned to him and hugged him while greeting Hemera. Archer returned her hug while asking, "Are you ready to go, Nefi?"

She nodded but before they left, Archer called for the twins. "Thalia! Xanthe!"

After a minute, Thalia and Xanthe appeared in front of him. Thalia, with her blonde hair, wore a warm smile, while Xanthe, with her black hair and captivating green eyes, observed him intently.

Archer spoke to them. "The other girls are sleeping. Could you look after them for me while I'm gone, please?"

Thalia nodded in agreement, and Xanthe followed suit with a slight nod. The two girls turned around to carry out the task assigned to them.

Afterward, he opened a portal to Akhetemhat City, and the three of them stepped through, finding themselves in the midst of a bustling city with the morning sun shining brightly overhead.

Nefertiti led them to the Zenian Arcane Academy. Archer noticed other students making their way there as well.I think you should take a look at

Archer spoke up. "Who's the idiot who ignored your Father's announcement?"

She turned around and answered. "He is the son of a Nomarch in the east. He is convinced he thinks he can steal me away from you."

When he heard that he got angry but calmed down when he saw the look on her face.

Nefertiti glanced at Archer and licked her lips as she continued. "No one could ever steal me away from you, husband. If my Father tried to separate us, I would choose you."

He smiled upon hearing her words and embraced her. Archer kissed her, leaving the pink-haired princess shocked.

Hemera rolled her eyes and spoke. "Arch, do you have to do that on the street? The other students are staring."

Archer pulled back from Nefertiti and looked around, noticing all eyes on them. He shrugged and answered the Sun Elf. "I don't care. I will kiss my girls whenever I please."

After saying that, he moved to Hemera and kissed her too, leaving the crowd watching with shock in their eyes.

With a mischievous grin, Archer stepped back, observing as Hemera's cheeks flushed red with embarrassment while Nefertiti just watched the two with narrowed eyes.

Suddenly, Nefertiti playfully grabbed hold of Archer and proceeded to drag him down the street, much to his amusement.

Hemera followed the two, they walked for a while until they stopped outside a large gate that was guarded by men in fancy leather armor that covered their chests, shins, and forearms.

They let Nefertiti pass but stopped Archer and Hemera, when she saw this she spoke. ''Why are you stopping my husband?''

When the guards heard this their eyes widened and remembered the Emperor's announcement, they bowed their heads as they let the trio pass.

Massive sandstone buildings with intricate hieroglyphic carvings towered above, evoking memories of ancient Egyptian architecture.

The academy itself was a breathtaking blend of grandeur and magic, boasting colossal columns and golden domes that shimmered brilliantly in the sunlight.

The courtyard teemed with students from diverse backgrounds, each adorned in unique attire that reflected their cultures and magical traditions.

Archer's eyes widened as he observed students practicing their spells—some levitating objects, others summoning sandstorms, and a few conjuring guardians in the form of stone and sand golems.

"This is the Zenian Arcane Academy," Nefertiti said, her voice brimming with excitement.

Hemera's eyes sparkled with wonder as she watched the students hone their magical abilities. "This place is incredible," she whispered in amazement.

Archer nodded, wholeheartedly agreeing with her sentiment. It was at that moment when a voice interrupted them. "Princess, who are these two?"

The trio turned their heads toward the voice to find a girl with a welcoming smile.

Upon seeing her, Nefertiti's face lit up, and she replied, "Farida, it's good to see you. This is my husband, Archer, and my sister-wife, Hemera."

Archer took a moment to examine the lovely girl before him—blonde hair, brown eyes, and a tanned skin tone.

When Farida heard Nefertiti's words, her eyes widened in shock, but she quickly composed herself and spoke, "Oh, I didn't expect you to bring him here. We were planning to meet him at the Nile's Blessing Carnival, but it's alright."

The girl then turned to Archer and introduced herself, saying, "I'm Farida Thoth, daughter of General Khafre Thoth from the western region and Nefertiti's best friend."

Archer offered a friendly smile, acknowledging her introduction.  However, before Farida could continue talking, a voice rang out from behind them.

"Have you considered my offer, Princess? My Father believes that our union would strengthen the empire even more than any dragon could."

Upon turning around, the trio's gaze fell upon three young men and women who stood there, eagerly awaiting Nefertiti's response.

Archer noticed a tall, blonde-haired guy who seemed as skinny as a pole but possessed striking red eyes and wore a cocky grin on his face.

Nefertiti was just about to speak when the young man interrupted, directing his gaze at Hemera with an unsettling hint of lust in his eyes. "You must be some exotic kind of elf, I've never seen anyone who looks like you. I am Merenptah Aten, the son of the Nomarch of the eastern province, Senusret Aten."

Hemera ignored him which angered Merenptah, he was going to speak until Nefertiti spoke up. ''I will not marry you, I will never be yours so give up Merenptah.''

He got even angrier but spotted Archer chuckling to himself and turned to him and spoke. ''Who are you?''
